Ive created another hack so I know when my mods/admins perform any moving/editing/deleting activities on my board. I got sick of asking people who did this and who did that. This way makes it nice and easy for me to know eho does what.
Here is what the output looks like. Quite simple but it does what it has to do

Looking good.

can you log the number of the response those the Moderator/Admin edited?

Also maybe can you reverse the order as the latest move first instead of last?

You might also log IP's. That way if a moderator leaked his/her password (even without knowing) you can check if it's done from their computer or not.

You might even find it's one of your registered users.

Bass...GOOD JOB!

Send it on over when you are ready for me to upload it with your other great hack!!

Come on Bass.....give it up!!!! LOL

Yeah I'd like this too.

Sorry guys, I dont read this board on the weekends Ok, ill have to document this hack and ill post it to viper once its done!!
Cheers

Viper, you have mail!

I've reversed the display order, so the newest logged activity is displayed at the top, and it also logs IP's and Remote Host name.

Enjoy

I have edited your initial post to include a link to the .zip file....figured it made more sense than to add it lower in the thread. Everyone have a look.

Now I have to get to work to update the DB here!!

Thanks BassTeQ for this great hack. It's good to see version 5 still hasn't died

CT Nps mate, Im gonna push it as hard as I can to keep the good ol' version 5 going

Hey BassTeQ can you email it to me too please?

Bass....I just wondered...how long does it keep the data? Is there a limit on how big the log can get?

Well the data file will just keep growing, no limit on size at all. If you see its getting too large then just wipe it and it will create it automatically next time.

I am implementing the hack as we speak. I found something to be different when using version 5.45:

[code][/code]This routine is not in ubblibrary.pl but in cpanel2.cgi, cpanel3.cgi and cpanel4.cgi

Damn. I'm stuck. There's nothing similar to this: </font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">code:</font><hr /><pre style="font-size:x-small; font-family: fixed;">Find this:
--------------------------------------------------
if ($NewTopicSubject ne $TopicSubject && $NewTopicSubject && $in{'ReplyNum'} eq "000000") {
$NewTopicSubject = &CensorCheck("$NewTopicSubject");
@stats = split(/||/,$revised[0]);
$stats[4] = $NewTopicSubject;
$revised[0] = "$stats[0]

</font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">quote:</font><hr /><font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Originally posted by CT:

You can put it anywhere in the file, but NOT inside another sub.
What I suggest is you find a line in ubb_library that starts with the word 'sub'
then just above that add my code as it says.

Find this:
$EditedMessage= &PipeCleaner("$EditedMessage");

and after that add :
&Custom_Admin_Log("$in{'UserName'}|^^|$in{'forum'}|^^|Edited the Post - $TopicSubject");

I'm going to test it later on, will it work on 5.45b?

Never tested on 5.45b.
Let us know

Worked fine!
Should work with all 5.4 versions I think.

Fantastic

BassTeq,

I have no Pipecleaner... any help?

Ok what version are you using?
Ill have to have a looksee at the ubb code and ill get back to you.

BassTeQ, is it OK if I give this to SpAwN to put on his v5 Database?

BassTeq,

Your hack seems to be working now. It's very neat. However I did not yet install the routine I'm talking about in my previous posts... I think editing subject or posts will not be logged.

I have a very heavily modified 5.45d, I will try to see if I can find the routine in the original code and see if I can find out what happened to it

Ive changed the hack a little to fix this problem with older versions, drop me an email bassteq@bigfoot.com and ill send you the updated hack.

Viper: Can you please also email me and ill send you an updated version too.

Thanks guys!

That was quick...

The problem was this: I had added the hack 'number of times edited', which changed the code into this:

[code][/code]I have added the lines of codes afterwards...

(I still hope I'm making sense here)

Thanks Bassteq for another fine hack!

Look for this :

#check for excess images-
&excess_image_check($EditedMessage);

And after that add

if ($NewTopicSubject ne "") {
&Custom_Admin_Log("$in{'UserName'}|^^|$in{'forum'}|^^|Edited the Post - $NewTopicSubject");
} else {
&Custom_Admin_Log("$in{'UserName'}|^^|$in{'forum'}|^^|Edited the Post - $TopicSubject");
}

If you have any other problems feel free to let me know.

Perfect timing BAss....I am READY for this!! you've got mail!

I'll wait for Viper to update the link, so it's easier for you not having to give it to 2 people.

ZIP FILE has been updated!! Thanks Bass!

Yay! Thanks Bass and Viper.

Done and Done, Cheers

Bass.....
I have it logging CLOSINGS when threads are closed with the "close after posting" box ticked....

BUT, I am having NO LUCK if I close (or open) a thread using the "Administrator Functions" links at the bottom of the page.

I've been working on a few snippets...no luck so far, but I'm not myself these days!!

Whats more..I cannot find any reference to the logging of OPEN THREAD in your instructions....just the reference to closing a thread after posting.

Ahh ok, I dont think I accomidated for those functions, Ill look into it and update the hack!

Heh, enough with the updates.
